ALT-TAB Problem

[1mgtheboss]

I want to share this observation:
When I go to a separate window from Chrome which has an impress.js presentation
open and then come back to Chrome using ALT-TAB, it automatically goes to the
next slide.

I know that when showing a presentation naturally we don't go to other windows but,
there is no such restriction. So I think this is an unwanted side effect and should
be fixed.

Please share your opinions.

I just comment out correspondent line in key up event handler in impress.js.
(In my case it's line #712).

        document.addEventListener("keyup", function ( event ) {
                  .....
                    //case 9:  // tab
                  .....
        }, false);

Similar issues here #127 & #238

Have a look.

Yes, it's a known issue caused by the fact that tab key is also used to move between slides (and Chrome sends Alt+TAB to browser with it is alt+tabbed - which is quite weird I'd say, it should be 'swallowed' by OS in my opinion).

Anyway, there is a known workaround for that and there are other issues describing it, so I'll close it as a duplicate.
